Maharajah Ram Narayan and a number of intelligence writers have informed me today, Wednesday, 30 Jumada II, reg.yr. 5 that the Prince, with Muhammad Ali Khan Bahadur has crossed the river Richnadah[?] and have reached Mirzapore Kalan and they are now intending to go to Azimabad. As it is not proper to wait any further and my army is like your own army that they are waiting for our orders therefore I have asked Nasir al-Mulk Bahadur today, 5 Rajab, to march with his army and encircle the enemy forces.
